We might think we are pretty unique but what if I told you there was another dunker on this blockchain. Yep that is right. Another Steemian who is into crypto currencies and dunking and is also an EOS HODLer!!!! Wow, that is pretty crazy right?

@thecryptodunker

So I was on YouTube and I saw a suggested video about EOS and saw the account that created it was called "Crypto Dunker"

I clicked on the video and basically he was a brother from a different mother!

Talking about EOS and dunking and then turns out he is on the STEEM blockchain as well! Crazy to think right? Here is one of his dunking videos.

He has done some really great crypto videos lately as well on his YouTube channel. Here is one explaining the cause for the recent surge in gas prices on the Ethereum network.

I know it sounds super crazy guys and I thought I was unique around here but the STEEM community is growing. The days of being the only dunker on this blockchain are gone!!! Go ahead and check out @thecryptodunker 's content!!

Thanks @brianphobos! Look forward to working with you and the community about all things crypto and dunk related!

Yeah Man it is pretty random how I tripped across your channel but it is good news because YouTube was serving up your content!

It really is false that white men can't jump! :p

Yeah the genetics situation isn't as big of a deal when it comes to vertical leap as it is in sprinting speed. It turns out that a lot of different people from different genetic backgrounds have been able to record unbelievable jumping ability.

You got some competition, your gonna have to start implementing some trick dunks into your repetoir

It is going to be tough to do much more variation for me. The NBA guys often have a foot more reach than I do and weigh the same to start with so it would be like me dunking on a 9 foot rim which I could do a ton of variations on. Then the pro dunkers who are really focused just on dunking are really lean. Like they will be 6'3 185 or something so it opens up more possibilities than me at 6' and I hover around 210lb to 215lb. To really improve much I would have to really cut back on the upper body lifting and lose 20 to 30 lb. I would honestly feel like I was going to get shoved around on the court real bad when I was playing. Hopefully I can I can pull a little more out but just to be able to dunk at all is shocking to most.

When I show up at the gym it is very common for me to be the only dunker there and if someone else can dunk they will be like 6' 6". A couple of the best dunkers in Tucson are around that 6'3" 185 lb category which makes sense.

There is Always Someone Else @brianphobos

Yep! It is like looking into a parallel universe! Hhahhahaha

Well I hold EOS, and used to be able to dunk when I was a young buck. I'm 45 now, but reckon if I put in the work I might just be able to do it again. I'm too busy eating to put in the work, though... :D

My perception of how old someone could be and still dunk was totally changed by this guy that is the "Over the Hill Dunker" He is 46 now and still dunking.

Julius Erving is still dunking at 70 but he is 6'7 so that is a little different.

Haha, well maybe there is still hope for me yet. :)

you have any dunk workouts?

It mainly revolves around gaining power by doing squats, deadlift, cleans, and lunges and then doing some other box jumps and then playing a lot of basketball and trying to dunk a lot.

what does your vertical have to be to dunk?

Aww man...looks like imma have to throw some footage up of me getting busy!

Yeah man do it! For the longest time I assumed I was the only person trying to elevate on this blockchain. That would be cool if we had a STEEM dunk mix eventually!
